SkyUp Airlines begins to develop cargo transportation \u2013 in addition to passenger transportation, this will become another direction of the airline activity. For this, the company received all the necessary licenses and permits, as well as reconfigured 7 aircrafts of its passenger fleet. The company has already completed its first cargo flights in March and April of this year (about 50 flights), transporting mainly medical supplies equipment. The airline also plans to carry out cargo transportation after the renewal of passenger flights at the end of quarantine.<\/p>\n

Opening a new direction in SkyUp business activity<\/strong><\/p>\n

The implementation of freight transportation as part of the activity was planned by the airline before the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. The introduction of quarantine measures on a global scale, as well as the related crisis in the passenger air transportation market accelerated internal preparation processes and gave impetus to the faster development of the new direction in the airline’s work.<\/p>\n

By order of the State Aviation Administration of Ukraine dated 03\/23\/2020, SkyUp Airlines is allowed to expand the type of economic activity from \u201cpassenger transportation by air\u201d to \u201ctransportation of passengers and dangerous goods by air\u201d.<\/p>\n

While preparing the launch of the cargo transportation service, SkyUp Airlines has created in its structure a specialized department and a team of professionals in sales, organization and maintenance of cargo transportation at airports.<\/p>\n

Reconfiguration of passenger aircrafts for the needs of freight transportation<\/strong><\/p>\n

The transportation of goods and the corresponding reconfiguration of SkyUp aircrafts for these needs were made in accordance with the requirements of Ukrainian legislation, as well as in accordance with the instructions for the carriage of goods by passenger aircraft provided by the aircraft manufacturer (SkyUp has eleven Boeing aircrafts).<\/p>\n

As of now, seven aircrafts have been reconfigured \u2013 four Boeing 737-800 and three Boeing 737-900. Another 2 aircrafts will be refitted soon.<\/p>\n

To ensure the correct transportation of goods, we agreed on the partial removal of the seat blocks with the State Aviation Administration of Ukraine, taking into account the Boeing recommendations (MOM-MOM-20-0239) and the EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) guidelines for the carriage of goods in the passenger cabin.<\/p>\n

The maximum allowed capacity of reconfigured SkyUp passenger aircrafts is:<\/p>\n
